Lets's calculate LCM of 956,4672
2 | 956, 4672 |
2 | 478, 2336 |
239, 1168 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 239 x 1168 = 1116608
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1116608
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8357/956,7169/4672 is 1/1116608
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 956,4672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(956,4672) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(956,4672) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(956,4672) = ( 956 × 4672 ) / 4
LCM(956,4672) = 4466432 / 4
LCM(956,4672) = 1116608
